I'm still confused with how to overclock my RAM. I purchased 3000 MHz sticks for my MB, which says that it can OC to that speed. Whenever I enable A-XMP though and overclock the RAM, my computer will give six beeps and keep restarting. When I set the speed lower on my own, however, it would still beep, but it would eventually boot up to the login screen. Do I need A-XMP on when I'm overclocking the RAM speed on my own (don't know what it exactly does)? I haven't tried an OC without it on yet though to see if it stops the beeping. I know people have mentioned updating the BIOS or fiddling with some CPU settings to fix the problem.
For my specs:
MB - MSI Gaming Pro Carbon AM4
RAM - 16 GB 3000 MHz Corsair Vengeance RGB
CPU - Ryzen 5 1600
All I want for my RAM is basically to be able to get as much out of it as for what I paid for it. It's only running at 2133 MHz.
Also, is it possible to OC the actual RAM to more than what it's rated at, not just what the MB is rated at handling. For example, putting mine at 4000 (although that's probably pushing it!).
I know I wrote a lot here, but I'm kinda new to RAM overclocking
